If things had went as I thought, I would be posting pics of a first year of production Browning A-5 16 ga. serial #1912. It was not a Sweet 16 as they did not make them till later. It belonged to my father, and I grew up using it for all types of small game hunting. I loved that old gun. It had been hunted hard was worn to the point that it would fire twice occasionally. One day several years ago I was visiting my elderly parents and went back to my old bedroom where the gun rack was only to find out the old 16 ga. Browning was not there. I asked my dad who was in his mid 80's where the gun was, and he said, "I sold that old thing." I said why and he said "I didn't need it"; I can't hunt anymore. When I asked him how much he got for it he said" I got $200 for it, l was mad as hell. I found out who he had sold it to and tried to get it back, but it had already been sold to someone else that was not known to the seller.
